Good record down there. Albion mate said they were desperate but they've picked up a bit since.

McGinn and Thor providing legs and drive will improve us.

Looks like Tammy is fit but Albert is not. Bolasie to have his first start.

I'd like to see Bree get a game at right back too.

A Villa win, and a good Friday afternoon in Shepard's Bush

Fascinating prospect to see how the team respond to Tuesday's setback. The return of SJM will help and I'm going to stick my neck out for a win.

1-0

Hutton should be dropped anyway

Dutch Steve has got OPR up and running in recent weeks. We are very average. Defeat.

Hang on, shouldn't this be QPR v Aston Villa?

I think we're looking at the same result as Tuesday unfortunately. We've just not had enough time to get the plan in the players' heads.

Shepherd’s Bush road get well oiled before what I expect a hard 90 mins with a low in confidence villa looking for 3 points. Yes we can do this

Rangers are one of the form sides in the league at the moment after a poo start, 1-1.

Win. 2-1 to Villa. We will be better going forward. Move Hutton to left back.  Bolasie and Tammy up as the front three with Kodjia.  We can’t defend to let’s go all Kevin Keegan and attack.

QPR beat Sheffield Wed 3-0 last Tuesday so we'll do well to avoid defeat. Defence worries me greatly so 2-1 defeat, unfortunately.

I've arranged work meetings in London on Friday so that I can go to the game afterwards. Like many on here, more in hope than expectation. Another very early start and late drive home. Just for once, please Villa make the journey home an enjoyable one!
